 BEST ENGLAND FOOTBALL TEAM
The England team chosen assuming a 4-4-2 formation (with reserves underneath) was:
Stuart Pearce (1987 - 1999) was one of the great left back's of all time with the courage and drive required at international level - he scored several goals with his fiercely struck free kicks and just beat Kenny Sansom (1979 - 1988) into second place.
There are always different opinions when it comes to having to pick a best England team but if these players could play together in their prime, they would be very unlucky not to win the World Cup.
